This research will inform, adapt and evaluate evidence-based science into practice. The participatory research process being utilized will integrate quantitative and qualitative methods to examine the role of psychosocial and contextual factors, including the expertise of children in middle childhood ages 8-12 with asthma, parents/caregivers, healthcare providers and a multi-disciplinary advisory board through the application of community-partnered principles of community-based participatory research.
